"Distance lends enchantment to the
view," In grasping at shadows we
often lose the reality. In no instance
Is this truism better illustrated than
in that of looking for a new home.
The glowing pictures of the possibili-
ties of the far West have been por-
trayed with such skillful touches of
both pen and Imagination as to cause
very many to overlook the vastly
better possibilities at their very
doors almost. They 60 hundreds
or thousands of miles only to
find that in grasping ut u shadow they
have lost o comfortable home amid
pleasant surroundings. To Illustrate
our meaning let us take Cumberland
Colony, in New Jersey. Here Is q
tract Of land, within q mile or two Of
the celebrated Vineland district, enjoy
ing with that equal advantages Of soil
and climate. Within easy distance OF
q station on one Of the main New Jer.
sey railroads. Possessing for markets
the two great cities Of Philadelphia and
New York, and In addition that OF At
lantic City. the most noted seaside re-
sort on the Jersey coast, its summer
population approximatins 70. 600 people.
With q soil responding quickly and
generously In all garden and horti-
cultural products to the skin and In.
dustry of the husbandman. q With
timber in plenty for lumber, fuel, and
fencing. With good water, bealth-
full climate, of easy access, low prices
and easy terms. In . nutshell, these
are the advantages OF Cumberland
Colony. Compare them with those
Of the much advertised and "boomed''
sections Of California or the north.
west, and theft value is enhanced by
the comparison. Then take into &C.
count the fact that this tract is al.
most at you doors; that 1t can be
reached at a small expenditure Of time
and money; and that In settling there
you are still within visiting distance
of your old home and friends, and the
much Wanted glories of the West sink
into nothingness. We, cite Cumberland
Colony not 80 much for the purpose Of
advertising Its good qualities. as to EN-.
phasize the fact that there are many
places In the East possessing all the
advantages Of California, and also the
additional ones of the easy and
cheap access to the locker after q
home, and nearness to the scenes
and faces which bind him tt
the place he has called home. II
may be asked why are not lands sit.
uated as are those Of the Cumberland
Colony not sold years ago, II they are
so valuable. Different reasons will ap'
ply to different localities. In the Gaze
of the Cumberland Colony the reason
is that they formed a part OF q large es.
tate, that has been tied up In conse.
quence Of no division among the heirs
and that it Is only lately that such 8
division has been made, and the own.
ership vested In one person, enabling
them to be placed in a salable condi-
tion, and their advantages Of soil. ioca.

reach of the people. an5

q glass bulb with two electrodes
through it at a suitable distance apart,
and either solid or tubular. A carbon

bulb. and the electrodes connected to a
generator Of high tension. Sparks pass
Through the gas inside the globe be-

gas, SO as to build up an arch or
